Good afternoon,
The following e-mail is being sent at the direction of Chief Judge Cecily Hazelrigg:
We have had a judicial vacancy for the better part of 2025 that has recently resolved by way of a contested election. As such, we have a new Snohomish County judge starting at Division I before the end of November.
The new judge will have two off-cycle clerkships with a rapidly approaching start date (early December, with the precise date to be negotiated by the judge and successful applicant) and a full case load for the January 2026 term. Accordingly, we are looking for applicants who have already graduated from law school and are available to interview/start within an unusually tight time frame.
The positions have been posted on our court website for a couple of months now, but in the interest of helping our newest appellate judge have the most robust applicant pool possible, I am asking that you share the link/posting within your networks.
Interested applicants should e-mail Evan.E...@courts.wa.gov.
Thank you very much,
Evan Erickson
Judicial Administrative Assistant to the Honorable Cecily C. Hazelrigg, Chief Judge
Washington State Court of Appeals, Division One
